What is the difference between industrial potassium nitrate and agricultural potassium nitrate?

2024-06-25

Potassium nitrate is also called fire nitrate, earth nitrate, etc. Potassium nitrate has many applications in the agricultural market and chemical industry, potassium nitrate belongs to binary compound fertilizer. Potassium nitrate is a non-chlorinated potassium and nitrogen compound fertilizer, here we come to understand what is the difference between industrial potassium nitrate and agricultural potassium nitrate!

Industrial potassium nitrate

Industrial potassium nitrate is more pure than agricultural potassium nitrate, less chlorine content, expensive, industrial grade potassium nitrate: implementation of national standards GB1918-98:

Application areas of industrial grade potassium nitrate: used as catalysts, mineral processing agents, preservatives, coloring agents

Agricultural grade potassium nitrate

Agricultural grade potassium nitrate:Implementing national standard GB/T20784-2006:

Agricultural Potassium Nitrate Application Fields:It is good non-chlorine potassium fertilizer, all of which are water-soluble nutrients, potassium ions and nitrate ions can be absorbed by crops very quickly, which can significantly improve the yield and quality of various cash crops.

Source of potassium nitrate in water soluble fertilizer:

Agricultural grade raw materials produced water soluble fertilizer < more impurities, poor water solubility, food grade raw materials because of the expensive price, so the application in the field of water soluble fertilizer is less, so choose industrial grade potassium nitrate is better. In fact, in addition to potassium nitrate, water-soluble fertilizer potassium raw materials there are more than higher ji levels of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, applied in water-soluble fertilizer effect is more prominent.
